Essentials of Accounting is a textbook written for managers who want to make full use of accounting information in the economic environment. It is not a comprehensive and detailed accounting textbook, but it can help readers broadly understand the contributions of accounting to businesses and some key aspects of accounting work that every manager should know. The structure of financial statements is part of introducing the accounting language of businesses. When managers strive to predict how their decisions will affect the company, using the framework of financial statements is often an effective way to summarize the potential effects and consequences that managers' industries may cause. The background conditions for case analysis in this book are: managers attempt to solve one or more complex problems, and these problems may not have a solution that meets the needs of all stakeholders and achieves their goals. In other cases, the originally complex problems have been greatly simplified by assumed conditions and descriptions, allowing students to discover why accounting issues often require extensive analysis and discussion.
